Wifi and broadband keeps dropping off
I work as an online streamer (twitch) and I'm currently unable to work as my WiFi and broadband keep disconnecting, it's nothing to do with my PC as this happens on all devices in my home, when I run a test it says everything is fine no issues, I've reset the the hub multiple times and nothing has changed with this issue
im now losing my income as I'm unable to be online for longer than 5 minutes

@Misskitty
Start by using this link to check if there are any issues locally that may identify a known fault which could be affecting multiple households ~
https://www.sky.com/servicechecker
It’s always worth rechecking it as the Service Checker doesn’t necessarily disclose a problem immediately and there is up to an hours delay before it picks up a lost connection so we tend to advise trying it again later.
If there aren't any then try running the line test here
https://www.sky.com/help/articles/broadband-diagnostic-start
You can also run the test via the MySky app on a mobile data connection.
Once completed, if it reports back that all is okay click on 'broadband' to run an updated test. If you get amber or red you need to follow the on-screen instructions.
If you’re still having problems you may need to report it to Sky. The easiest way is to dial 150 free from your Sky Talk landline (if it’s still working).
🔸Various hub lights; This link provides information about the coloured lights you may see on the various hubs

🔸Red light on ONT?; See this link ~
https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband-Talk/Can-t-connect-to-broadband-and-have-a-red-light-on-your-...
🔸Working from home?; Sky broadband discussed on here is a domestic service and whilst Sky allow customers working from home to use it, they won’t receive additional or quicker support.

Re: Wifi and broadband keeps dropping off
Hello thank you for replying, I have tried all of the above and I fear the issue is the hub itself
